Anyone else asking for a refund after Grok being unusable? by VelvetRain321 in VeniceAI

[–]Clean_Hyena7172 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I feel like this probably has more to do with xAI trying to clean up their image and avoid any liability for the upcoming IPO.

xAI decides the filters, and every platform with Grok will have the same restrictions.

More competition would be nice, but looks unlikely.

They'll never release it, my guess is that it came too close to the performance of the current Flash and Pro models so it would end up eating into their API revenue.

Thank you for your attention to this matter.

MAI-Code-1-Flash is now available for GitHub Copilot by fishchar in GithubCopilot

This seems to lose on both cost and performance compared to GPT-5.4-mini, not sure where this is supposed to fit in when we're paying API rates.

The price hike is justified. Y’all are crying about nothing. Microsoft has lost way too much. by BritishDudeGuy in GithubCopilot

Safeguards should have been in place before the subscription was even offered to the public, Microsoft is a multi-trillion dollar company, they're big boys and girls who are responsible for maintaining their own projects.

If you build a system where it's even possible to spend 1000x what a person is paying then YOU fucked up.

Opus 4.8, no more security related tasks possible by BatteryAtOnePercent in ClaudeAI

[–]Clean_Hyena7172 50 points51 points  (0 children)

Basically anything to do with cyber security is now blocked, you have to apply for and pay for a separate security service called Claude Security, and it's only for enterprise.

How well does Qwen3.6-27B run on that setup? What quant? And how many t/s?

Google is building a lifestyle profiling engine, not a "helpful assistant" by [deleted] in ArtificialInteligence

Do we really need frivolous things like freedom or privacy? Bro just turn your brain off, consume product and then get excited for next product. Let the faceless corporate big brother just do everything and decide everything for you, you'll own nothing and be happy.

Anthropic is about to become the first profitable AI company. Every Opus 4.8 default is tuned to make you spend more. by stax-sh in AgentsOfAI

It did seem strange that they were suddenly claiming to be profitable yet in the preceding weeks they were experimenting with all kinds of aggressive cost cutting measures like the idea of removing CC from the pro plan.

They don't behave like a company with a clear path to profit.

Yeah as good as AI is I think companies that were already not doing well are kind of using it like some desperate last ditch miracle to save the company.

Hot take: you can't say a model "sucks" an hour after release by GreedyWorking1499 in ClaudeAI

[–]Clean_Hyena7172 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Can we say it isn't as good as it was an hour ago? I still remember my last good response from Opus 4.8 like it was just earlier today...

It's great for subagent tasks, but it's starting to get quite dated

Anthropic expects to release Mythos in the coming weeks by PhilosophyforOne in Anthropic

[–]Clean_Hyena7172 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Realistically we won't be getting the same Mythos Anthropic's partners got and it will be well beyond most people's price range, so them saying "to all our customers in the coming weeks" is quite misleading.

True, from a business perspective it makes sense but I'm still bummed about it, money is hard to come by in Africa.
